Important Approaches to Cultivating High-End Talents in International Chinese Language Education from Local Teachers’ Perspective

Abstract

The establishment of the Doctor of Education professional degree in the field of International Chinese Language Education in 2018 and the successful construction of the integrated training system for undergraduate, master and doctoral postgraduate students in International Chinese Language Education in 2022 helped to cultivate elite talents, and have laid a solid foundation for the cultivation of high-end talents in International Chinese Language Education and brought new development opportunities and requirements. Currently, International Chinese Language Education is in a crucial stage of transformation and upgrading, aiming to shape a new pattern that is more open, inclusive, high-quality, and accessible. To build a global communication system for the Chinese language and culture, enhance in-depth understanding between the Chinese and foreign people, and promote the construction of a community with a shared future for mankind, training institutions should purposefully cultivate high-end talents in International Chinese Language Education with a cross-cultural international perspective. From the standpoint of local teachers, the cultivation of high-end talents in International Chinese Language Education should give full play to the characteristic of the close combination of theory and practice in International Chinese Language Education, and should attach great importance to the “joint training model for high-end talents from Chinese and foreign sides in regional and national contexts”; in addition, emphasis should also be placed on strengthening the cultivation of international perspectives and related capabilities.
